She’s Coming Home!

Abercrombie & Fitch shorts? Walmart bag? Yup, someone's been in Louisiana. Here's Britney boarding a private plane in Mississippi, heading back to LA after spending the weekend in Kentwood at her little sister's baby shower. This gives me even more hope that Britney will be showing up, in person and sober, to her custody hearing on Tuesday. Oh please, please be there, Britney! I was walking Leo this afternoon with a girlfriend, and she was telling me about how her eight-year-old nie...

Where’s John?

After spending last weekend cuddling with John Mayer all over Miami, Jennifer Aniston spent this weekend a little more low-key, chilling with friends by the pool at her hotel. Homegirl sure is looking good these days. I like Jen because her body is natural, womanly and not stick-thin, but by no means fat. She doesn't seem interested in starving herself, she's just content to look like, ya know, a healthy adult woman. [Image via Splash]...

Puppetry of the Penis!

Tonight Trish and I went to see Puppetry of the Penis here in Seattle. And, first off, I would like to give mad props to Trish for being the only one of my so-called "friends" out here to agree to go with me. She was, in fact, the only one to even return my email about it. My other "friends" in Seattle are loooosers (makes L-shape with hand on forehead). If you guys have never heard of Puppetry of the Penis, it is basically just these two Australian dudes butt-naked on stage making shape...

Jamie-Lynn’s Baby Shower a Drama-Free Event

No upskirts. No alcohol. And, so far, no reports of insider photos being shopped out to the tabloids. On Saturday, JLS had her baby shower at the family's Serenity complex in Louisiana. We've got conflicting reports of the attendees from different sources. E! says that there were both men and women, most teenaged and early twenties, while People magazine says it was an all-girl affair, with Casey Aldridge's mom present as well as Lynne and Britney Spears. In typical Louisiana style, there w...

Look Who’s Helping!

Here's Reese Witherspoon, an Avon Global Ambassador (whatever that means) joining participants at the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer event in DC. Meanwhile, Leo and I spent the afternoon at his very first day of school! That's right: puppy kindergarten! Leo was the smallest kid in his class by about 15 pounds, I think. The other puppies were a little more experienced, but Leo learned to sit and come, so I was very proud of him. He has still not learned how to avoid peeing on the floor, because h...

Gretchen Wilson Gets Edumacated

Congrats to country star Gretchen Wilson, who has officially proved herself the academic equal of Jamie-Lynn Spears. The 34-year-old, who dropped out of high school after ninth grade, passed the GED in April, and will graduate on May 15. Gretchen says the reason she decided to get her GED was her seven-year-old daughter. "I certainly don't want her to think you can be this successful without an education." It's funny; I've always been a huge proponent of higher education, but, afte...

Iron Man Kicks Some Box Office Ass

Despite well-publicized concerns that its audience was going to be home playing the new Grand Theft Auto game rather than going to the movies, Iron Man killed it at the box office this weekend. The film is expected to bring in around $104.3 million this weekend -- not quite Aquaman numbers, but enough to put it in front of the openings of almost all other comic book films ever. It's the 10th biggest movie opening in history. I guess you guys really liked Gwyneth Paltrow's legs. ...

Who’s In Love with Emile Hirsch?

The nerdy heartthrob poses with Christina Ricci at the Tribeca screening of Speed Racer. I, for one, don't see the appeal here. There seems to be a huge trend of the new heartthrobs being these kind of nerdy boys. It just doesn't work for me. I like the traditional leading man -- tall, dark and handsome. Is that so wrong? Is crushing on classically hot dudes passe now? And Christina Ricci is all of five feet tall. Granted, she's wearing heels, but there's just no way this guy is talle...
